Renoprotective effect of tolvaptan in patients with new-onset acute heart failure.

ABSTRACT: AIMS:Although tolvaptan has been reported to prevent worsening renal function (WRF) in patients with advanced acute heart failure (AHF), evidence regarding the effect of tolvaptan on renal function in patients with new-onset AHF is not available. This study aimed to investigate the renoprotective effect of tolvaptan in patients hospitalized with new-onset AHF. METHODS AND RESULTS:A total of 122 consecutive patients hospitalized with new-onset AHF between May 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively evaluated. WRF was defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine ?0.3 mg/dL (?26.4 ?mol/L) within 48 h or a 1.5-fold increase in serum creatinine after hospitalization. The furosemide group (n = 75) and the tolvaptan add-on group (n = 47) were compared. The tolvaptan group consists of patients who received tolvaptan as an individual physicians' decision. The incidence of WRF was significantly lower in the tolvaptan add-on group (8.5%) than in the furosemide group (24.0%, P = 0.03). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that tolvaptan treatment was an independent variable related to the prevention of WRF [odds ratio (OR), 0.20; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.05-0.85]. Furthermore, subgroup analysis revealed a more favourable effect of tolvaptan in patients with serum creatinine ?1.1 mg/dL on admission (OR, 0.23; 95% CI, 0.06-0.98) and an ejection fraction <50% (OR, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.04-0.90). CONCLUSIONS:A lower incidence of WRF was observed in patients with new-onset AHF who were treated with the tolvaptan add-on therapy, specifically those with left ventricular systolic dysfunction and renal impairment on admission.

Project description:AimWe present the baseline characteristics of the PREFERS Stockholm epidemiological study on the natural history and course of new onset heart failure (HF) aiming to improve phenotyping focusing on HF with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF) pathophysiology.Methods and resultsNew onset HF patients diagnosed in hospital or at outpatient HF clinics were included at five Stockholm hospitals 2015-2018 and characterized by N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), biomarkers, echocardiography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (subset). HFpEF [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%] was compared with HF with mildly reduced LVEF (HFmrEF; LVEF 41-49%) and with HF with reduced LVEF (HFrEF; LVEF ≤ 40%). We included 547 patients whereof HFpEF (n = 137; 25%), HFmrEF (n = 61; 11%), and HFrEF (n = 349; 64%). HFpEF patients were older (76; 70-81 years; median; interquartile range) than HFrEF (67; 58-74; P < 0.001), more often women (49% vs. 30%; P < 0.001), and had significantly higher comorbidity burden. They more often had atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and renal dysfunction. NT-proBNP was lower in HFpEF (896; 462-1645 ng/L) than in HFrEF (1160; 563-2370; P = 0.005). In HFpEF, left ventricular (LV) diameters and volumes were smaller (P < 0.001) and septal and posterior wall thickness and relative wall thickness higher (P < 0.001). E/é ≥ 14 was present in 26% of HFpEF vs. 32% of HFrEF (P = 0.017) and left atrial volume index > 34 mL/m2 in 57% vs. 61% (P = 0.040). HFmrEF patients were intermediary between HFpEF and HFrEF for LV mass, LV volumes, and RV volumes but had the highest proportion of left ventricular hypertrophy and the lowest proportion of elevated E/é.ConclusionsPhenotype data in new onset HF patients recruited in a broad clinical setting showed that 25% had HFpEF, were older, more often women, and had greater comorbidity burden. PREFERS is well suited to further explore biomarker and imaging components of HFpEF pathophysiology and may contribute to the emerging knowledge of HF epidemiology.Clinical trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT03671122.

Project description:ObjectivesTreating acute decompensated heartfailure (ADHF) for improving congestion with diuretics may cause worsening renal function (WRF), but the clinical efficacy of tolvaptan add-on therapy on reducing WRF in ADHF patients is inconsistent. This analysis is to evaluate the effects of tolvaptan add-on therapy on reducing WRF in ADHF patients.MethodsMeta-analysis of randomised trials of tolvaptan add-on therapy on reducing WRF in ADHF patients. The MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases were searched for relevant articles from their inception to 31 October, 2017. Two reviewers filtrated the documents on WRF, short-term all-cause mortality, body weight decreased, elevated sodium level for calculating pooled relatives risks, weighted mean difference and associated 95% CIs. We used fixed-effects or random-effects models according to I2 statistics.AchievementsSeven random controlled trials with 937 patients were included for analysis. Compared with the control, tolvaptan add-on therapy did not improve incidence of worsening renal function (RR 0.78, 95% CI 0.48 to 1.26, p=0.31, I2=66%) and short-term all-cause mortality (RR 0.85, 95% CI 0.47 to 1.56, p=0.61, I2=0%). On subgroup analyses, there was a suggestion of possible effect modification by dose of tolvaptan, in which benefit was observed in low-dose (≤15 mg/day) group (RR 0.48, 95% CI 0.23 to 1.02, p=0.05, I2=54%), but not with high-dose (30 mg) group (RR 1.33, 95% CI 0.99 to 1.78, p=0.05, I2=0%). However, tolvaptan add-on therapy reduced body weight in 2 days (standardised mean difference -0.49, 95% CI -0.64 to -0.34, p<0.00001, I2=0%), increased sodium level (mean difference 1.56, 95% CI 0.04 to 3.07, p=0.04, I2=0%).ConclusionThe result suggests that comparing with the standard diuretic therapy, tolvaptan add-on therapy did not reduce the incidence of WRF and short-term mortality, however, it can decrease body weight and increase the sodium level in patients who are with ADHF. Further researches are still required for confirmation.
